Old Mrs. Sandler reached her hand out, with her well-manicured nails, and gently patted Carlos’s back. Her eyes were filled with pure affection.After he finished his meeting, Francis started to have the time to entertain his parents.“I’m very fine. Don’t worry about me! You didn’t even have to come all the way down here just to see me.” he said concisely.“When did she come back?” His father asked, referring to Scarlett.“The day before yesterday!” Francis said as he looked up. He knew that Scarlett was trying to avoid her parents, and that’s why she was busying herself with mundane, menial tasks.And then Old Mrs. Sandler sat up and said, “I’ve n

“So, what do you think we should do? Do you have any ideas?” Scarlett asked in a whisper. She was worried that Francis would overhear the conversation, so she had run into the bathroom and was speaking as quietly as she could to avoid getting found out.“We gotta use our wisdom to defeat them!”Scarlett knew that Eve was in the same boat as she was, but Eve was hardly thinking straight right then. Scarlett disconnected the call and sauntered out of the bathroom. What awaited her was, of course, Francis’s cold shoulder.Fortunately, she was a little busier than Eve; at least she had her studies to stop focusing on Francis's issues.That same day, all kinds of people came by the hospital to see Francis. As his wife, Scarlett had to entertain t

Francis wasn’t able to see Scarlett off at the airport because of his injured leg. As a result, Chuck took on this honorable mission to go to France with Scarlett and help her arrange for a new apartment.Coincidentally, Eve had gone back to France as well. Although Scarlett had no idea about how she convinced Damon to let her go, she was still pleased about this news.Chuck arranged for Scarlett to live in a small but exquisite building. It was a nice neighborhood with many cute cafes and bistros, and there was hardly any crime in the area either. Since the place was out in a first-tier suburb, however, Chuck had to figure out how to get Scarlett a chauffeur who could take her back and forth from school.“I’m fine taking public transport, Chuck. It’s not that long of a ride, and the scenery

Francis frowned, “What’s that supposed to mean anyway? I was young once too, you know. I went to college, and graduated, and-““No, no, you’re missing the point, Francis,” Scarlett said, interrupting him. “You just don’t look… I don’t know, distinguished, I guess. You’re not like Damon, Eve’s boyfriend. He has a certain… a refinement to him. You know what I mean?”“So you like Damon?” Francis said, full of jealousy.Scarlett nodded readily and said, “Yeah, I’m just saying I like his temperament. It’s much better than yours.” Francis suddenly took out his cellphone, and Scarlett stared at him in confusion. Then she realized what was going on: Fra

As soon as the exchange program was over, Francis booked Scarlett’s flight back to America.Being six months pregnant, the intercontinental flight was no easy feat for Scarlett. She felt uncomfortable on the plane because she felt a searing pain in her back and waist no matter what posture she found. She had to keep getting up to go pee too. Overall, she suffered a lot on the plane.The stewardess came to ask her several times whether she was doing okay, and although Scarlett was chronically uncomfortable, she did not tell the stewardess anything about her discomfort. Instead, with a bright smile on her face, she said she was doing just fine. Scarlett took a deep breath and covered herself with the blanket. She turned her head to look out the window at ten thousand meters above the air.When the plane landed,
